MANUFACTURING PROCESSES
Needle Punch
Unlike traditional wet felts, needle punched felt is produced through a technical process using barbed needles. During needle punch felting, the barbed needles puncture the fibers at a rate of 600-2,000 punches per minute. The precise repeated puncturing of the needles entangles and locks the fibers together, creating our industrial felts.
Using different needle combinations, penetration depth, and fiber selections, we can tailor produce our nonwoven needled felts to meet your application needs, including all quality and industry standards (SAE, ASTM, and UL fireproofing requirements).
Needle punched felts can be found anywhere, from simple home craft felt to automotive heat shields. At BIT, our needle punched nonwoven felts are used in many technical industries, including sound insulation, gasketing, and filtering.

Just-In-Time Delivery
Just-in-time delivery is a manufacturing process aimed at reducing production times.
Many manufacturers will agree to short-notice orders without having the proper processes in place to allow this to be done safely. Telling workers to “hurry because the customer needs it in two days” is bound to produce errors in the product and increase the risk of accidents.
We have taken the necessary steps to incorporate just-in-time delivery into our everyday procedures. When you need a reliable product fast, Bouckaert Industrial Textiles has the processes in place to get it to you.
